Sugar wax

Sugar wax is another concentrate made through butane extraction and it looks just like it sounds—shiny, sticky and crumbly.

Cannabis strains that contain terpenes which are particularly prone to retaining water are better for making sugar wax. Know that if you are trying to make a shatter, it can sometimes turn into wax because of the terpene contents.

Since the process of making sugar wax also involves butane, it’s not safe to make it by yourself.

Budder

Budder is something between shatter and wax, but it’s also made using butane hash oil extraction.

What separates it is the purity: Budder has fewer cannabinoids but is richer in terpenes. Also, budder is not as solid as shatter, and it’s more wax-like which makes it much easier to use.

To use budder, put it in a bong or pipe, add it to a joint or blunt. Just like with all of the above.

Crumble

The process of making crumble is very similar to other wax varieties, but with one important difference—the temperature of purging.

After the initial solvent extraction, the rest of the product is left on low heat so the solvent can evaporate gradually. This is the best way to keep the full flavor of the concentrate.

Crumble is easy to use: Just scoop it and pack it into a bowl.

It also works great for every type of dabbing. Crumble easily loses moisture, so it’ll turn into dust-like crumbles quickly. It’s important to keep your concentrate in a sealed container, in a cool place.

Live resin

This is the latest method of cannabis concentrate extraction. Freshly harvested buds are frozen and then the resin is extracted from the flowers.

This method of extraction is complicated, requires laboratory equipment and is not something you can do at home, so it’s better to buy live resin at your local dispensary.

CO2 oil

This type of oil uses carbon dioxide for extracting the resin. The end product is a pure, liquid concentrate that’s usually used in vaporizers and vaping pens.

CO2 extraction leaves more terpenes in the concentrate, which means more flavor and even more medical benefits.
